BH5H and a 1 x 12 BH112 cabinet. I have changed the tubes. I replaced the EL84 with a Mesa engineering EL84. I replaced the 12AX7R with a Groove Tube 12AX7R. I am playing a 1992 Fender American standard Stratocaster with GHS 11s. I am playing through an Electro-Harmonix HolyGrail reverb pedal as this amp does not have a built in reverb. I am also playing through a Voodoo labs Sparkle Drive pedal, which is awesome.
im getting this amp soon and i want to change the tubes what do you guys think the best pair for this is, im thinking ehx or jj's cant make my mind up lol

Well hendrix did not use overdrive pedals. Just go for a fuzz and clean it up with your guitars volume.

I tried a JJ el84 and was almost the same as the chinese el84, hard to notice any difference.
